You Versus You: If We Don’t Prioritize Ourselves, Who Will?
01/03/23 • 22 min
We're squashing the "New Year, New You" trend by starting with a Healthy Mindset. Your number one competition is always yourself- you versus you. No coach, no trainer, or no mentor can do it, only you versus you. It’s on you- only you are in charge of your happiness.
Creating new healthy goals for 2023 needs to begin with the way you speak to yourself. If you notice yourself sharing limiting statements, add the YET to the end to remind yourself that you are capable of learning and improving (“I can’t manage all of my affairs this week... YET!")
Self-Talk Matters, which starts with reframing your inner monologue:
- Avoid using absolutes like “never” or “always”
- Change language intensity
- Change from “why” to “what”
- Refrain from “what if’s”
These techniques can have a powerful impact on your ability to self-regulate.

The Things That Don’t Matter, Don’t Matter
As the New Year approaches, it’s important to focus on the things that really matter and let go of the things that don’t. Worry, stress, and anxiety can be overwhelming, but there are ways to cope. Find self-care strategies that work for you, such as writing in a journal, listening to a calming podcast, or meditating. Take time for yourself to focus on the positive and de-stress. Let go of the things that don’t matter and start the New Year with a sense of calm and motivation.
Stabilize your thoughts with these tools:
- Journaling
- Meditating
- Going for a walk outside (or moving/stretching in any way)
- Focus on gratitude (in fact, write them down in your Self-Care Planner!)
- Affirm yourself
Get more tools in the show notes, and go ahead and make ya self some Jambalaya too!

Vice or Virtue: Feeling Good With a Healthy Food Mindset
In this episode of the Really Personal Podcast, I want to share with you some of the most impactful changes that I’ve made over the years because it’s not an overnight process that has helped me get to this point where I just have a really balanced and effortless relationship with food.
Want to know how to have a healthy relationship with food? Balance is key! Before diving into forming a healthy mindset,
- Stop labeling foods as good or bad.
- Listen and respect your body’s natural hunger cues.
- Don’t restrict foods: balance is key.
- Don’t punish your body for eating.
One of the coolest things about the nutrition by addition framework is that you don’t have to give up any of the foods you love. You can add to the foods that you enjoy to make them more filling and satisfying and to support your health goal.
- If you love cinnamon buns or donuts in the morning, serve them with some scrambled eggs and berries.
- If love enjoying a cookie with your afternoon snack, have some greek yogurt on the side.
- If you’re a huge baked brie or love grazing the cheeseboard as much as me, fill up your plate with lots of veggies too
Start Mastering Your Mindset With Food!
